Challenges for ΛCDM: An update

L Perivolaropoulos, F Skara - New Astronomy Reviews, 2022 - Elsevier
A number of challenges to the standard Λ CDM model have been emerging during the past
few years as the accuracy of cosmological observations improves. In this review we discuss …

The cosmological constant problem and running vacuum in the expanding universe

J Sola Peracaula - … Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
It is well known that quantum field theory (QFT) induces a huge value of the cosmological
constant (CC), Λ, which is outrageously inconsistent with cosmological observations. We …

Nonminimal dark sector physics and cosmological tensions

E Di Valentino, A Melchiorri, O Mena, S Vagnozzi - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We explore whether nonstandard dark sector physics might be required to solve the existing
cosmological tensions. The properties we consider in combination are (a) an interaction …

Interacting dark energy in the early 2020s: A promising solution to the H0 and cosmic shear tensions

E Di Valentino, A Melchiorri, O Mena… - Physics of the Dark …, 2020 - Elsevier
We examine interactions between dark matter and dark energy in light of the latest
cosmological observations, focusing on a specific model with coupling proportional to the …

Dark matter and dark energy interactions: theoretical challenges, cosmological implications and observational signatures

B Wang, E Abdalla, F Atrio-Barandela… - Reports on Progress in …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Models where dark matter and dark energy interact with each other have been
proposed to solve the coincidence problem. We review the motivations underlying the need …

Tale of stable interacting dark energy, observational signatures, and the H0 tension

W Yang, S Pan, E Di Valentino… - … of Cosmology and …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the observational consequences of a novel class of stable interacting dark
energy (IDE) models, featuring interactions between dark matter (DM) and dark energy (DE) …

Interacting scenarios with dynamical dark energy: Observational constraints and alleviation of the tension

S Pan, W Yang, E Di Valentino, EN Saridakis… - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We investigate interacting scenarios that belong to a wider class, since they include a
dynamical dark energy component whose equation of state follows various one-parameter …

Echo of interactions in the dark sector

S Kumar, RC Nunes - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
We investigate the observational constraints on an interacting vacuum energy scenario with
two different neutrino schemes (with and without a sterile neutrino) using the most recent …

Dark sector interaction: a remedy of the tensions between CMB and LSS data

S Kumar, RC Nunes, SK Yadav - The European Physical Journal C, 2019 - Springer
The well-known tensions on the cosmological parameters H_0 H 0 and σ _8 σ 8 within the Λ
Λ CDM cosmology shown by the Planck-CMB and LSS data are possibly due to the …

Can interacting dark energy solve the tension?

E Di Valentino, A Melchiorri, O Mena - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
The answer is yes. We indeed find that interacting dark energy can alleviate the current
tension on the value of the Hubble constant H 0 between the cosmic microwave background …
